INITIAL RESPONSE : Greta colors, Car nicely 'detached' fro the background, perfect Depth of field, What is the cat looking at ?
COMPOSITION : The cas is so great, the position of the head, the expression. One of the rare photo of animal where I think the cat is really living something, almost 'human'. The face is so great , the fur so nice with all its variations of gery.
What bothers me a little is that there is not 'space' between the head and the pole. It's not that important in this case because the cat is really on a different vertical plan than the pole in term of depth, so they are separated by depth.
TECHNICAL : Perfect, depth of field, exposure, speed (thepicture look so precise and sharp without showing any post-sharpening. Very sharp and soft at the sae time. I like it.
DIGITAL PROCESSING : None or not visible so .. perfect
MY OPINION :
I Like this picture a lot, one of the best 'cat picture' I have seen for the expression of the cat. A little bother by the pole touching the head (see above).
As of the relation to the challenge .. I am not sure I get it.
Nice picture, worth a good place in your personnal gallery.
Many shots here in this challenge as well others rely on the title to explain how its connected to the challenge. The picture I think, should say a thousand words or at least be self explanitory. This is an excellant shot very sharp and full of emotion . If the object of this cats attention were included would that have helped?6
Really, really great shot of the cat. It's a really pretty cat (I like grey). I just don't see the challenge connection. (Title not withstanding) I really need something IN the photo that reflects the challenge, not just the title. Sorry, it is a great cat shot!

This is a good photo.. I think you have done a great job with it, but I don't understand how it meets the challenge. The title tells me how it meets, but the photo doesn't... - setzler
My most favorite. Hate that you cropped off his tail. I did that to my boxer, but you're supposed to do that. I really like this . It will go in my favorites. PTL
